Okay, so first.

Using Mac is a no-go. For me, they became insufferably power-user hostile over the years.

Second,

God the safari rendering was so horrible for so many years. As a web developer, you have to target your greatest demographic, and Safari just broke everything more often than not.

Finally, even using Mac on enterprise, Chrome use is required because of the profile controls that can be exerted. And items #1/2 don’t help


Default configuration or not, I also imagine the first thing people using docker do is to add themselves to the docker group via sudo.

If you are security-conscious, you shouldn’t be using docker anyway.


If you are adding yourself to the docker group, you have presumably read the documentation and its warnings. Does an Omarchy user know the distro has made the decision on their behave?

TFA spells out why this is wrong better than I could.

> There is another important aspect of this configuration. It was opt-out, not opt-in. A user did not have to actually use Docker. The security tradeoff was made for them, applied to the default account, and the tradeoff was not explained to the user.

> Security-sensitive defaults matter precisely because many users reasonably assume that the operating system defaults to secure and will inform or prompt them to opt-in to less secure settings.


I am not disagreeing at all. Nor am I trying to claim this behavior is safe.

I’m just pointing out the level-set that I’m sure the first time someone installs docker and tries to use it, chances are they are just going to install themselves in the docker group without considering the impact and continue on their day.


I have passwordless sudo anyway. XKCD knows why the password is pointless.


> The source was quickly identified, and it's trivial to avoid the tainted supplier.

The mixed messaging certainly didn’t help.

One day it’s Taylor Farms and the next the FDA was apologizing.

And even once it was found to be Taylor Farms, you can’t control every Taco Bell or anything else.

Mostly it just killed any consumer confidence in greens


> you can’t control every Taco Bell

Restaurants and fast-food outlets generally can't/don't avoid their staff making sketchy health decisions.

Don't eat at them if you're worried.

Read anything about back-kitchens and staff's interesting attitudes towards health risks.

I highly recommend Kitchen Confidential - amazing novel writing.

Although my intro to the genre was 1933's Down and Out in Paris and London (an upper-middle class хорошо horrorshow). An all-time favorite book.


Seems kind of subjective innit?


Taste is subjective of course, but when 80% (or whatever) of your potential audience dislikes something perhaps you should just accept that it's a bad idea.


Thing is, using ML they can make more than 5 times as many articles. And I suspect those who don't object to wasting more time on an article because it was produced in a protracted way probably clock through on ads more. So annoying 80% of people might still get them more revenue in the end.


That is a fair point - hopefully there won't be any hard feelings when the 80% attempt to censor such slop from their platforms of choice. Taste is subjective and I come to HN for things that taste good. (Notably this leaves the door wide open for AI authored content with a decent tone.)


And here I think you are just making up numbers.

I’m not claiming it’s good/bad one way or the other, but it’s the reality in which we live.

I’m just saying it’s weird to call AI okay for some things, like finding the exploit, but using that same AI is somehow the line in the sand when it comes to the documentation


That world can’t exist unfortunately, because the minute someone wants a feature that isn’t in your core libraries, you just create a new library and we’re back to now.


>> I also ruled out the back doors: one USB interface, one LUN, both claimed.

>What the fuck does this sentence even mean? Opus’ tone and style is nauseating.

Seems pretty clear to me.

Nothing exposed beyond the expected surface.

Whining about everything being AI, is worse than the AI itself. Especially when the blog post as a whole is clearly human written. OVERWHELMINGLY so

The actual AI stuff in the article is clearly called out and delineated.


You’re referencing an argument I never made. I have no problem with the author’s post, I was very specifically complaining about Opus’ barely coherent style of prose.


You were specifically complaining about Opus’ nauseating style of prose, by calling out a sentence by the author you didn’t immediately comprehend?


Except that you're wrong. The referenced sentence is in a quote block, written by Opus.


I’ll take the « OVERWHELMINGLY » as a compliment, I guess ;).


Compared to a banana?


> Stop pearl clutching. If we are going to start judging morality, we can start looking at the Clintons (good friends with Epstein), the Bidens (His daughter has some really interesting things about what happened when she was little and his son Hunter? I think we can safely say that there are no morals here and the media ran cover for him). Even Bill Gates was on the island, best friends with Epstein, and there was almost no mention of it in the tech community.

> We need to hold everyone accountable, not just when it's politically convenient.

You stop your pearl clutching first. We have someone who just ignores the rule of law when he doesn't like it. Including the Supreme Court.

Guess who hasn't been President for what... 30 years? Hillary was never President. Hunter Biden? Again, not President. Joe Biden? He quit before he showed a fraction of the mental incapacity of our current President.

Don't defend BS behavior just because YOU believe "the other side", who haven't been relevant in years, did it too.

At this point you are repeating conspiracy theories rather than presenting facts. Convicted felon? Nah, it's a conspiracy. Rapist? Only 28+ women have come out. But again, that is a conspiracy too.

Meanwhile, you can paste together Truth Social posts, live videos, and show EVERY DAY you are being told lies, and not even good ones, but you accept it blindly.

How's that Iran war going for you? It's Friday tomorrow, so clearly the US or Iran will attack and then next Monday when the markets are open, peace comes again and the 432nd war has been stopped.

Just stop. It's lacking any intellectual integrity


> He quit before he showed a fraction of the mental incapacity of our current President

He “quit” because it became apparent he had a fraction of the mental capacity of the current president. Or people just hated him more than Trump. It’s strange that he won and then had to bow out in the contest.


This is nothing new and the reason I went from being the biggest media collector to collecting nothing now.

To put it in perspective, I bought Get Him to the Greek on Prime video shortly after it came out.

A month later, the "exclusive broadcast rights" changed, and I was no longer able to access it.


The whole reasoning behind this is flawed.

“We don’t know how to scale Traefik so we went with haproxy”

Well doh. Haproxy is designed for this. You can make haproxy serve copious amount of traffic on a single arm core and a little bit of ram. Imagine what you can do with a few replicas on your large clusters.

This has nothing to do with the choice of CI/CD or docker versus kubernetes.
